Lobitz68 Posted February 27, 2015 Report Share Posted February 27, 2015 I would check for a vacuum leak. Should be very consistent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please keep us posted after your dealer visit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xcaliber81 Posted February 27, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2015 (edited) I have noticed it the past month I guess, I dont drive my car every day its my wifes car mostly. I do know when it was brand new It never happened. I have an app on the 9th for a few cosmetic things like my rear hatch is rubbing on the bumper and its getting worse everytime i open it.

Lobitz68 Posted February 27, 2015 Report Share Posted February 27, 2015 Ill just take it in in that case Should be VERY easy to find a vacuum leak. A hose will be off or very loose and there will be a loud sucking sound coming from it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xcaliber81 Posted February 27, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2015 If it was a vacuum leak would the irregular idle be present all the time and not just in drive while stopped? I should have noted the idle is perfect in park the problem occurs in drive while stopped after 30 seconds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
